NEW YORK, Sept. 1S-The extraordinary
session of the general term of the Supreme
Court, called to hear argument upon Jacob
Sharp's appeal from his conviction for brib
cry, reassembled this morning before q
crowded court room. Judge Van Brunt
presided, nanked on either side by Judges
Daniels, Brady and Bartlett. Judge Van
Brupt announced that the court would sit
until $50 o'clock, allowing six hours for ar
gument, which, divided up evenly between
counsel, was considered sufficient. Mr.
Nicoll moved to strike out all that portion
of the argument relating to the motion to

act Of 1887. The motion was granted. The
question Of the jurisdiction of the court was
waived by Mr.. Stickney, who stated th:s he
had no intention to avail himself of that
point. Mr.. Bourke Cochran then proceed

in the race. The Volunteer was lowered
into the water yesterday afternoon with
everything in readiness fer the contest The
Mayh was put in the water at the same
time rs the Volunteer, but more plains had
been taken to get her in the best condition.
The Volunteer crossed the line at 10:52:30,
the Maghower following a! l0:53:15 The
wind was ct that hour blowing from the
northeast ut the rate of six miles an hour,
the weather was cloudy and hszy and the
sea smooth. The prospects for good race
are not as bright as they might he, owing to
the light wind and the fact that the yachts
will have to stem the Tide going and return
ing The Thistle followed them out.
A dispatch received from, Stapleton, S. L.,
gives the time of the start as follows: May

the Narrows en- the starbosrd tack. The

teer. The wind is light and is blowing from
the east. Both yachts have their balloon
jib topsails set.
At 1926 p. M the wind was only four
miles an hour. The Volut .eer appeared to
be gaining little. At 1910 the Volunteer
was an eighth of mile ahead of her rival.
The Volunteer rounded bouy No. 10 at

now so light that the course can hardly be

Neither boat is making over one mile al

The Thistle followed the racers down the
bay and showed beyond all doubt that in
light winds she is wonderful craft.
The interest taken in the race was almost
phenomenal. On the Bay Ridge dock a
number of Scotchmen gathered and dis
cussed the merits of the two sloops, and
agreed hat the Thistle could beat them both.

A BULL.FIGHT WITH PITCHFoRKs.-
Farmer Lyman. resident OF the southern
part of Downel' 8 Grove township, H., was
gored to death by bull on Wednesday.
Mr.. Lyman and another man went into the
pasture to look at some cattle, and the bull
attacked Mr.. Lyman. His companion es
capped to barn, and lie and another man
mounted horses, armed themselves with
pitchforks and galloped back to the rescue.
They found Cir. Lyman dead. The bull
stood near the mutilated body, believing
augrily. His eyes were rolling, froth was
dripping from his mouth, and his tail was
flashing the air. The excited horsemen
charged fercely upon him with the pitch
forks, and after stubborn fight he ran
away. Returning to the body of MIR. Ly-
man, the men found it terribly mutilated
and disfgured One ear was torn off and
he was nearly disemboweled. Mr.. Lyman's
companion says that when the Infatuated
bull first knocked his victim down Mr.. Ly-
man lay still, and the animal simply walked
around his PROSTATE form, paving and bel
lowing. 1t was then that the eyewitness
ran for horse, thinking that Mr.. Lyman
would lie still until he should arrive armed.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Lyman got up, and
that the animal then renewed the attack,
which resulted in Mr. Lyman's death.
